Tag: #Mathletes

Our last interview of the day was with Kelly Kirkpatrick, organiser of the Khan Symposium. She told us about how Mathletes is about harnessing the competitive sports spirit in an academic setting. She’s already looking to Mathletes 2015 …

For this interview we were brought to a private room or as Ken McGrath called it The Pod it was like a really small conference room stuffed with technology!.

Ken is responsible for the delivery of Eircom services to schools across Ireland (therefore he is extremely busy today!) He got excited after the #EXCITED event in Dublin Castle at the start of the year, he was more than happy to offer the facility to a similar event. He is a great advocate of learning through technology and believes it is the only way forward!
